Simple IO Client Library

A small, low level library for Muut IO — the essentials you need to get a quick start. Use instead of the full Muut client library or along with it to build your custom community application.

Coming in at a mere 4kb, it adds hardly any weight to your site.

With no dependencies io-client works nicely with any 3rd party libraries (React, Riot, Vue, etc.).

Manages the pain and heavy lifting of connection management for realtime applications.

Familiar API with promise methods (done, fail and always) and event emitting (on, off, one and emit).

muutio('myproject', function(data) {

// render your app with data

})
this.call('createThread', {
  body: ['the', 'second', 'paragraph],
  path: '/myproject/general',
  title: 'All good'

}, function(key) {

  // success

})
this.on('reply', function(path, reply) {

  // update the app

})
// start the app with custom data
muutio({
  query: {
    path: '/myproject/general',
    filter: { 'meta.public.assigned': 'johndoe'},
    sort: ['meta.public.priority']
    version: 1,
  },
  start: 0

}, function(data)

  // render

})

CLI based management

No need to leave your development tools to manage your account. Create projects, change settings, create or remove API keys, all from our CLI.

Create a project
> muut projects create [project]
Disable social sharing
> muut projects settings set [project] skip_sharing true
Get account usage/subscription
> muut status
Create API key
> muut keys create
